parties of the investor.
B19
Sometimes there will be indications that the investor has a special relationship
with the investee, which suggests that the investor has more than a passive
interest in the investee.
The existence of any individual indicator, or a
particular combination of indicators, does not necessarily mean that the power
criterion is met. However, having more than a passive interest in the investee
may indicate that the investor has other related rights sufficient to give it power
or provide evidence of existing power over an investee.
For example, the
following suggests that the investor has more than a passive interest in the
investee and, in combination with other rights, may indicate power:
(a)
The investee’s key management personnel who have the ability to direct
the relevant activities are current or previous employees of the investor.
(b)
The investee’s operations are dependent on the investor, such as in the
following situations:
(i)
The investee depends on the investor to fund a significant
portion of its operations.
(ii)
The investor guarantees a significant portion of the investee’s
obligations.
(iii)
The investee depends on the investor for critical services,
technology, supplies or raw materials.
(iv)
The investor controls assets such as licences or trademarks that
are critical to the investee’s operations.
(v)
The investee depends on the investor for key management
personnel, such as when the investor’s personnel have specialised
knowledge of the investee’s operations.
(c)
A significant portion of the investee’s activities either involve or are
conducted on behalf of the investor.
(d)
The investor’s exposure, or rights, to returns from its involvement with
the investee is disproportionately greater than its voting or other similar
rights. For example, there may be a situation in which an investor is

entitled, or exposed, to more than half of the returns of the investee but
holds less than half of the voting rights of the investee.
B20
The greater an investor’s exposure, or rights, to variability of returns from its
involvement with an investee, the greater is the incentive for the investor to
obtain rights sufficient to give it power. Therefore, having a large exposure to
variability of returns is an indicator that the investor may have power. However,
the extent of the investor’s exposure does not, in itself, determine whether an
investor has power over the investee.
B21
When the factors set out in paragraph B18 and the indicators set out in
paragraphs B19 and B20 are considered together with an investor’s rights,
greater weight shall be given to the evidence of power described in
paragraph B18.
